Hoppers Additions
by Wikos
Hoppers Additions adds a set of specialized hoppers that extend the automation Minecraft already offers, from faster item movement to hoppers that pick up nearby items.
What it does
The hopper types each take on a different job: a Reinforced Hopper moves items twice as fast, a Mining Hopper sits on top of mined blocks and collects their drops, a Dropping Hopper places items on the ground, a Magnetic Hopper gathers items from a range around itself, a Filter Hopper accepts only one item type, a Monster/Animal Hopper moves mobs, and a Batch Hopper moves items in larger groups. Six additional hoppers are also added.
Installation needs Architectury API and Fabric API on Fabric, while NeoForge needs Architectury API. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files are released for NeoForge and Fabric under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, making the source code open. Version 0.3 is the latest build for 1.21.1, published on 2026-04-18, after the first release on 2026-04-02.

Use cases
Item collection on mining rigs
A mining hopper or a magnetic hopper can gather drops from a mining area without a long line of conveyors.
Mob transfer
The monster/animal hopper moves mobs between points in a farm or enclosure.
Who it’s for: Players who build automated farms, mining setups or item transport lines in survival worlds and on servers that run the mod on both sides.
How it compares
Hopper Bucket is open source under the MIT License and covers Fabric and NeoForge for 1.21 – 26.1, so it reaches more versions than this mod. Autowork is also open source under the MIT License and works on NeoForge for 1.21.1 alone. Both are client and server mods, like Hoppers Additions.
